Inspirational Words: Martin Luther King, Jr.'s Quotes on Freedom || Civil Rights

Martin Luther King, Jr. (1929-1968) was an American Baptist minister, civil rights leader, and advocate for nonviolent social change.

He became one of the most prominent figures in the Civil Rights Movement, dedicated to achieving racial equality and justice for African Americans in the United States.

King is best known for his eloquent speeches, most notably his iconic "I Have a Dream" speech delivered during the 1963 March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom.

He championed the principles of nonviolent protest and civil disobedience, inspired by Mahatma Gandhi's teachings.

King's tireless efforts led to landmark achievements, including the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Voting Rights Act of 1965.

Tragically, he was assassinated in 1968, but his legacy endures as a symbol of courage, resilience, and the ongoing struggle for equality.
